James Harden made four three-pointers en route to 22 points off the bench for
the Thunder, who have won five in a row against the Pistons and swept the
home-and-home season series for the second straight year.

Serge Ibaka added 16 points and eight boards for Oklahoma City, which has won
two straight and five of six overall. Russell Westbrook tallied 13 points and
11 assists.

Richard Hamilton finished with 20 points for the Pistons, who have lost 10 of
their last 13 games.

"They were hitting shots," Stuckey said. "James Harden came in and played a
very good game. Durant did his usual as well as Russell Westbrook. They played
a complete game."

The Pistons scored the final five points of a back-and-forth first quarter to
grab a 26-22 edge.

But the Thunder took control late in the second quarter. Trailing by four,
43-39, with under five minutes to go, Oklahoma City closed out the half on a
16-7 run. Durant tallied 10 points during the stretch, including a jumper with
19.3 seconds left to give the Thunder a 55-50 lead at the break.

The Pistons got within four, 67-63, on McGrady's trey with 5:43 remaining.
Oklahoma City, though, responded with a 9-4 flurry to take a 76-67 margin on
Harden's three-pointer.

The Thunder led by as many as 11 in the third and took an 86-75 lead into the
fourth.

Oklahoma City scored the first seven points of the final period to essentially
seal the victory. Harden's trey made it 93-75 with 10:15 to play.

Detroit had one last run in them, as they ripped off nine straight points late
in the frame to get within six, 100-94. But the Thunder scored the final four
points of the game to account for the final margin.

"We get everybody involved," Durant said. "Everybody gets a touch and just
like any sport, once you get a few baskets you start to feel good about
yourself. Everybody was energetic on the offensive end tonight...Defense could
have been a lot better."
